Introduction

American Power Conversion Corporation (APC) is the leading national and international manufac- turer of state-of-the-art uninterruptible power supplies, redundant switches, power management soft- ware, and related equipment. APC products protect hardware, software, and data from power distur- bances in business and government offices throughout the world.

The APC Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is designed to prevent blackouts, brownouts, sags, and surges from reaching your computer and other valuable electronic equipment. The UPS filters small utility line fluctuations and isolates your equipment from large disturbances by internally dis- connecting from the utility line. The UPS provides continuous power from its internal battery until the utility line returns to safe levels or the battery is discharged.

The design is also user-friendly, featuring a clear LED display that shows battery status, load level, and overall health status at a glance.

In terms of battery characteristics, the UPS uses sealed lead-acid batteries that are user-replaceable, simplifying maintenance and ensuring that the system continues to operate effectively over the years. The battery runtime is adjustable, allowing users to choose between higher performance for critical devices or extended backup time for non-essential devices.

Overall, the APC 750VA, 100VAC UPS is a versatile and robust power protection solution, blending innovative technology with practical design elements to meet the diverse needs of users in a variety of settings. With its reliable performance, advanced features, and user-friendly interface, it has become an essential component for ensuring continuous power availability and protecting valuable electronics.
